They not only didn't print "second hand" anywhere, but there is also no info about the movement. Why the hell there is "automatic movement" at the back where you can see the automatic movement? I would also appriciate if they print the year of production.

I bought four SKX’s recently. I paid less than $400 each. Those prices you are referring to are ridiculous. Bunch of opportunists. I don’t think anyone would pay that. The Made in Japan SKX’s are more expensive. I bought the non-JDM models. They are exactly the same. My dealer told me a bloke in the UAE stocked up on SKX’s before they were discontinued. He’s controlling supply in order to jack up prices in the grey market. Unfortunately there are people like that in this world. I m sure he’s not alone. I think around $400 is still good value due to the specs the SkX’s offer (200 metres WR ISO certified with a screw down crown and the iconic Seiko 5 case design). At $150, it was extremely good value and I think Seiko realized it was under priced. Now under Seiko’s new pricing strategy, a model with a screw down crown and 200 metres water resistance will be upwards of $1,000. So at $400, I think the SKX still offers value, even despite the non hacking and non winding 7s movement. The fact the SKX is iconic makes it also worth $400 imo.

@@HansWatches easier to press buttons but still pays homage to classic g design. The 6000 series was used by the Navy Seals and US military in the 90s. It also has an audible alarms unlike 5610u. And it charges faster with more solar panels. It just seems like a better fit for you since you have bigger fingers and wrist. Try one on and see if you like it in person.

Bought my first automatic Seiko SKX011 because I always admired my brother’s Seiko dive watch in the lake 70’s early 80’s. Bought a new old stock for $220 know I might have to have it serviced because it would stop and go. But it was mint! And yes it cost $250 to service but now it’s perfect and I love it!!! There is nothing like that flat 🍊 color and a lock down crown. Received it with the black rubber and the jubilee Seiko bracelet. I’m in love… 🧡

I completely agree about the adjust button! I was sad because the 5600 was the perfect fit for my needs and I did not want to have to spend twice as much just for the adjust button. The solution in my case was extremely simple, I just ordered a full length button and swapped it out. No special tools were required, and it took less than 10 min all in. I am now very happy with my 5600!

Quick question to the community. SKX007 produced April 2019. Has air divers 200m engraved above a small wave. Is this real. All others have bigger wave and scuba divers engraved. Any ideas? -someone told me maybe it's part of last batch skx007 meant for North America. Is it a fake? Seiko did make air diver watches, but in a skx007 form?

Seiko in Asia produced skx007k2 and skx009K2 basically the same watches on regular prices but goes easily sold out due to flippers. Wait for it to go on sale. In asia it is an urband legend that it is hard to find. 300$ max price full set here. In other part of asia used pieces goes for like 80$-100$ but a lot are either franken or are mod. Though they are mostly legit parts mixed together.

I first thought this watch was ugly because of the case, but I couldn't stop thinking about it. I guess i was craving something different, so i bought it. The specs can be intimidating. It's a great watch. It wears smaller than 43mm, maybe a 41mm on my 6.75" wrist. It wears a lot thinner on a 2-piece strap. I have it on an orange rubber strap, and the strap balances out the heavy watch. I dont even feel that im wearing it. It comes with the best nato strap you will ever see. I've had it for over a year, and I'm still enjoying its unique looks.
